blunder /j
WAIT WTF I THOUGHT THIS WAS AN APRIL FOOLS PRANK
Timezones, for most NA and European people its still april 1st
They should have made premium for free today
ANISH!!!!!
YEAH LMAO
who is going to be the first girimaster
the fact that its 2 april
Me
Yea free premium for 1 month pls
Ikr
Imagine it was real 
I think itโs real bruh
^^^^^^^^^^
XD
most of places it isnt
The company?
Yes
id say for majority of the population it is
save a little of your allowance and in a short amount of time maybe 80 years you can buy 2% of it
well yeah
BTW I'm son of billionaire
Ask Bing*
so it is not april fools ?
Bing Chilling
only??
In terms of BTC
Ask gpt5 if Anish really became ceo
honestly I would've been perfect as ceo
It said "Applicants must be rated at least 1600 in online chess, have 10+ years of management experience in tech or gaming, and not have an MBA from Harvard." in yesterday's post about CEO. I mean come on, no way Anish has above 1600 online rating
billion bitcoin or billion worth of bitcoin
I trust you
would've given out free diamond member ships to everyone
Is this real Or prank
It is not a joke
It doesn't matter. I am rich in both cases
real.
anish do you plan on making draws give both players +8 elo
for unspecified reasons
Bro that's too low. It gonna take ages to reach 400 rating
is it true that whenever a board meeting vote goes against you, you persuade the other board members into a draw
No way
Bro thinks he is hikaru
Anish are you planning to make bishop vs knight endgames not be draw because in certain positions knight and king can checkmate if bishop blocks the king or the opposite
I dont wanna think too hard
The AMA is Tommorow not now
Said chatgpt while taking his own bishop
fair
Bro I bet no one knew who the old CEO was before this
I did not
I think it was carl magnesium
Same
I bet it will be April Fool prank
@tight heron but they announced it yesterday that he was stepping down
Ah yes relistic chess
If I am put on a chess board I be walking off the side of the board
6 Anish Giri bots
His face fits the one of a CEO tbh
Every chess piece will be replaced by giri
I love this so much
Bro thinks she's hikaru
Ok we will go with botez
u cant escape the board, its surriundd by fire, and the piece will obv not let u move without consequences, like harry potter ๐
chess 2.0 ๐
And you win the game by whoever plays the botez gambit first
I almost believed this

Man I want chess 2.0 update
They can make that happen since duck chess became a thing
they didnt even try to make it seem real ๐
i just woke up, not knowing whats happening, and it didnt even take me 3 secs to see that this is just americans living in the past
could happen in the near future once brain chips r a thing
@solar shadow they already are
Ask elon to release neuralink asap
approved for human usage ๐
I mean they already have put them on rats
i it were upto him, he probably might ๐
And before you ask they put them on rats to test the brain waves they produce to further investigate brain reading
Should have tested on human subjects smh
who cares about rats, we got pigs and monkeys ๐
oh, congrats. but isnt it 1 april joke?
it is
Forget pigs and monkeys we have human subjects
if theyd hv put effort into it, i mightve tried to convince u it isnt, but well ๐
Elon gonna control our brains
well yes, but no, we arent letting everyone know yet ๐
@kindred estuary not quiet yet they are currently at reading brain waves
Bro by the time my generation is at adulthood we will already be dead
The world nuked 3 times over
im so happy it isnt some random money hungry person
Elon musk is
Ye, they chose a family man, good job by em ๐
๐
Also the same thing doesn't apply people from US, being from there might hv the opposite effect when is a family man ๐๐๐
Ay what you got against the us
why does chess.ocm have to do this i dont like this
Are you from Britain
no
No @solar shadow
ohh ok
Ye you good
Nope
Where you from than

Hello there dear new promising CEO of Chess.com! Some of us are concern about the current changes and the new era of the website and wanted you to promise us that you will never perform the following actions:
Do you promise that you will never:
1. Give us up?
2. Let us down?
3. Run around and desert us?
4. Make us cry?
5. Say goodbye?
And last but not least:
6. tell a lie and hurt us?
Thank you very much for revolutionizing chess and good luck with your present position among us!

It's true
Wait mittens anish plays caro-kann!!
Play e4 and he responds with c6
Also he sadly passed the scholars mate test๐ญ
Are you telling me that I didnโt get the job???
no, they dont think its worth to tell it to u, u just found out by a public announcement ๐
Dang it. Well I donโt give up so easily, when Coca-Cola or Apple needs a new CEO Iโll apply there
Or Twitterโฆwait never mind
Amish girl
Let's go Anish!
draw????
This is bogus
What changes will implement to the draw button?
+17 means you have atmost 17 moves before you should offer the draw
